Brian Baldinger Of NFL Network Feuds With Zennie Abraham Of Zennie62 Over NY Jets QB Situation - Video Brian Baldinger Of NFL Network Feuds With Zennie Abraham Of Zennie62 over Bridgewater vs Darnold at QB. It’s simple. NY Jets Teddy Bridgewater has played better in NFL Preseason than Sam Darnold, whom the Gang Green took with the 3rd pick in the 2018 NFL Draft. Brian Baldinger who is my friend over at the NFL Network disagrees. He says that the Jets should start Darnold because they took him with the third pick. Under that logic, I should buy a fur coat and wear it in 80 degree weather just because it’s expensive! First, I would never buy a fur coat and second I would not use it in 80 degree weather! The fact is Teddy Bridgewater has outplayed Darnold in the NFL Preseason and upended the NY Jets QB plans. The Jets actually thought Teddy Bridgewater was going to be some expendable journeyman quarterback! How silly! Rather than be happy with having a rich stable of passers, the Jets
